Orioles' Brandon Young: Back in big leagues
The Orioles recalled Young from Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday.
The Orioles have an opening in their rotation this weekend in Detroit that could be filled by Young, if the club wants to give Kyle Gibson more time in the minors to get stretched out before making his 2025 debut. The right-handed Young yielded three runs over four innings against the Reds this past weekend in his major-league debut.

Orioles' Cody Poteet: Sent to IL with shoulder injury
The Orioles placed Poteet on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with right shoulder inflammation.
Poteet was rocked for five runs while throwing 68 pitches over 2.2 innings in Sunday's blowout loss to the Reds and apparently came out of the appearance with a shoulder problem. It's not clear how long he might be sidelined.

Bryse Wilson RP | MIL
White Sox's Bryse Wilson: Filling bulk role Wednesday
White Sox manager Will Venable said that Wilson is in line to fill a bulk-relief role in Wednesday's game in Minnesota, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Wilson has worked exclusively out of the bullpen so far in 2025, but he's made 52 career starts in the majors, including nine last season with Milwaukee. The right-hander isn't stretched out enough to handle a traditional starting role, but he should be able to offer the White Sox a decent amount of length out of the bullpen after having previously covered three innings and 64 pitches in an April 4 relief appearance in Detroit. If Wilson excels in his appearance Wednesday, he could be in line for a more permanent spot in the White Sox rotation with Martin Perez (elbow) recently landing on the 60-day injured list.

Paul Sewald RP | TOR
Guardians' Paul Sewald: Cedes homer in win
Sewald allowed two runs on two hits while striking out one over 1.1 innings in Monday's 6-4 win over the Yankees.
Sewald got the last two outs of the seventh inning before getting stung by a Jazz Chisholm two-run blast in the eighth. He's allowed three home runs and has a 6.10 ERA over 10.1 innings (12 outings). Sewald, who has experience as a closer, could nevertheless garner save opportunities at some point if the issues Emmanuel Clase (two blown saves, 7.84 ERA, 2.23 WHIP) has exhibited thus far prompts manager Stephen Vogt to try someone else in the role, at least temporarily.

Joey Cantillo SP | CLE
Guardians' Joey Cantillo: Logs first hold
Cantillo walked one and struck out one over a scoreless one-third of an inning in Monday's 6-4 win over the Yankees.
A day after recording his first MLB save, Cantillo was credited with his first hold when he finished out the eighth inning. The 25-year-old lefty began the season as a multi-inning reliever but has not worked more than one inning over the last four appearances. Cantillo has allowed just two earned runs while striking out 15 over 11.2 innings.

Angel Martinez LF | CLE
Guardians' Angel Martinez: Logs two hits, run in win
Martinez went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 6-4 win over the Yankees.
Martinez doubled and scored what turned out to be the winning run in the fourth inning. He started a third consecutive game in center field, as Martinez appears to have overtaken Lane Thomas (.366 OPS) as the primary starter. It makes sense, because Martinez is batting .364 (12-for-33) with an .868 OPS over nine games since his call-up from Triple-A.

Rob Refsnyder DH | SEA
Red Sox's Rob Refsnyder: Homers off righty
Refsnyder started in place of a slumping Ceddanne Rafaela and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 4-2 win over the White Sox.
Refsnyder, a lineup staple when the Red Sox face a left-hander, got a rare start against a righty and delivered his first home run of the season in his first at-bat. Boston hasn't seen too many southpaws thus far, and Refsnyder entered Monday's game with just 21 plate appearances. Rafaela's bat showed life in the first two games of the series, but overall, it's done little to help his season-long numbers, as he carries a .582 OPS with just three extra-base hits in 74 plate appearances. Notably, Refsnyder has the same number of XBH over 25 plate appearances.

Kristian Campbell 2B | BOS
Red Sox's Kristian Campbell: Delivers two runs in win
Campbell went 2-for-3 with a walk and two RBI in Monday's 4-2 win over the White Sox.
Campbell, who fell behind 0-2, worked an eight-pitch at-bat before driving a sinker that caught too much of the plate the opposite way for two-run single. "Try to be selective as possible and swing at the right pitches," Campbell told Christopher Smith of MassLive.com. "Just try to be patient as possible." The rookie has been exposed to major-league pitching for three-plus weeks, including a second time against the White Sox, and he's learning how teams attack him and making adjustments. "We talk about there's an opportunity to face the same guys that he faced last week and to make adjustments and start looking for pitches," manager Alex Cora said. "And the last two days, he has been impressive. Not chasing." Campbell is batting .316/.428/.500 with eight extra-base hits, eight RBI, one steal, 11 runs, a 15.6 walk percentage (89th percentile) and 23.7 chase percentage (72nd percentile) over 91 plate appearances.

Yoan Moncada 3B | LAA
Angels' Yoan Moncada: Resumes swinging bat
Moncada (thumb) has been able to swing right-handed and field grounders, per MLB.com.
Moncada landed on the 10-day IL due to a right thumb sprain April 10, so he's already eligible to be activated. It's not clear when the switch hitter will be able to resume swinging left-handed, but he at least appears to be making progress in his recovery. Moncada could return to the Angels before the end of April, but an early-May return is probably more likely.

Zach Dezenzo LF | HOU
Astros' Zach Dezenzo: Takes advantage of rare start
Dezenzo went 2-for-3 with two doubles, a walk, two runs scored and an RBI on Monday against the Blue Jays.
Dezenzo was in the lineup for only the fifth time this season and for the first time since April 12. He smacked an RBI double in the fifth inning to get Houston on the board and is now 4-for-18 on the campaign.
